  • Blood pressure controlling apparatus, non-transitory computer readable recording medium storing control program of blood pressure controlling apparatus, and method for controlling blood pressure
    Patent number: 11969597
    Abstract: A blood pressure controlling apparatus includes an acquiring part configured to acquire biological information indicating blood pressure of a subject, a producing part configured to produce a frequency modulated pulse train on the basis of the biological information, and a supplying part configured to supply an electrical current on the basis of the frequency modulated pulse train, to an electrode attached on the subject. The electrical current stimulates baroreceptor afferent nerves of the subject.
    Type: Grant

  • Intake manifold of internal combustion engine
    Patent number: 6817332
    Abstract: An intake manifold for an internal combustion engine. A first separable part includes an independent intake passage, a first recess, and a first joint section. The independent intake passage has a downstream open end connected to more than one intake port in the engine. The first recess is disposed on a side of the independent intake passage, and has an open end adjacent to an upstream open end of the independent intake passage. The first joint section surrounds the upstream open end of the independent passage and the periphery of the first recess. A second separable part includes a second joint section to abut the first joint section, and a second recess having an opened internal circumference of the second joint section and being disposed opposite to the independent intake passage. Intake air is introduced through the first and second recesses to the intake passage when the first and second separable parts are joined together.
